This morning, Avery was baptized at Covenant Presbyterian Church.
She is 4 1/2 months old and such a blessing to our famliy.
Infant Baptism Vows
1. We acknowledge our child's need for the cleansing blood of Jesus Christ, and the renewing grace of the Holy Spirit.
2. We claim God’s covenant promises in their behalf, and do you look in faith to the Lord Jesus Christ for their salvation, as you do for your own.
3. We promise to rely on God’s grace to live the kind of Christian life that they can imitate.
4. We will pray with and for them and teach them the Bible, so that they will love God and others.
5. We will strive, by every means necessary, according to the grace of God, to raise them in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

We had lots of friends at church with us today to share in this special time. Chris, April, and her sister Heather brought the girls over after church for lunch and play time. We had a very nice day together.
funny story: Ali kept asking if they washed Avery's hair because they sprinkled her with water ;)
